Barbershop (movie)

George Tillman Jr. originally wanted to film “The Inevitable Defeat of Mister & Pete” in Chicago, but he said he and his long-time producing partner Robert Teitel opted for Brooklyn instead because of the lack of housing projects still standing in Chicago. Now the Columbia College alums have their sights set on filming a different movie in Chicago — where they also shot “Soul Food” and “Barbershop,” among other movies — and production could begin as early as next year.

The untitled movie centers on a struggling songwriter who returns home and assists a group of at-risk youth with their annual talent show.
